hi,
my partner and I both went to see Dr Rudy last Sept, Mark for a filling, me for an extraction and addition to my plate.
I found Dr Rudy to be very good, he did all the necessary prior work such as taking casts etc, xrayed my tooth to make sure it couldnt be repaired, discussed the plan for extracting and further treatment.
The day before we were to return to Australia, he extracted the tooth, relatively painlessly, did an antibiotic pack dressing as I have suffered a condition known as dry socket in the past and fitted my new plate with its additional tooth. I had started antibiotics the day prior in anticipation of the extraction.
4 visits, xrays, casting materials, needles +++, antibiotic dressing, new tooth on my old plate for about $110.
Mark's filling was painless and has been no trouble. It was about $45.
We will both be going to see him again in August for a check up.
